Probably just used the original lp masters

replicated, not upgraded.]]> Tue, 14 Nov 2023 05:36:41 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=9997&PID=63971&title=foundations-build-me-up-buttercup#63971 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=9997&PID=63951&title=foundations-build-me-up-buttercup#63951 Author: EdisonLite

David, I am really not sure!

All I remember is I never found a copy of the US stereo
album in the early-to-mid Seventies, and my older
"collector friends" suggested that I try an import album
if I wanted to see if they were stereo - but I was
"afraid" to take a chance on a Goldmine listing...

Well, it is the true stereo version, but they ran it
through the re-channelling process anyway (you know that
old 'one side tin, the other side mud' that was prevalent
in the sixties...)

According to Both Sides Now website, it is shown as "e" on the 1969 Uni LP.
Andrew, what do you mean by ...both true-stereo AND re-channeled "Does
Your Chewing Gum Lose It's Flavor"?

Is this the LP to which you refer:

https://www.discogs.com/release/4988083-Various-Best-Of-The-
British-Invasion

So Sandie Shaw's hits on her Reprise LP "Sandie Shaw" were not true stereo? I
would love to know what other true stereo songs are on that Pye LP.

Good question. Not sure. It's on their best of from 2004 in stereo and mono. The From The Foundations Expanded Edition has the mono. I would venture that its not the LP version if you cant find it on a 69 stereo album anywhere, just my 2 cents.

One of the most noticeable liner note errors is in the booklet for Dick Bartley's Collector's
Essentials: On The Radio Vol. 4 which reads:

"We are proud to present the original single version in stereo; there are no noticeable differences
from the mono release."]]> Thu, 28 Sep 2023 21:36:07 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=9997&PID=63700&title=foundations-build-me-up-buttercup#63700 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=9997&PID=63688&title=foundations-build-me-up-buttercup#63688 Author: AndrewChouffi

To Ron:

I'm pretty sure the stereo version didn't show up in the
USA 'til much later. I'm actually reasonably certain that
it wasn't out in the UK when it was a hit, either.

What I am sure about is the first album that I owned that
contained it was the 1975 'Best Of The British Invasion'
on Pye Records thru a USA distribution deal with NY's ATV
Records.

This album also contained (in my estimation) the USA
stereo debut of Sandie Shaw's hits and a curiously both
true-stereo AND re-channeled "Does Your Chewing Gum Lose
It's Flavor".

If anyone can let me know of any earlier stereo USA
releases of these tracks please let me know!

I would also like to be made aware of any known earlier
import stereo releases of these tracks.

Thanks!

Wasn't this an imported single from the other side of the pond?

I haven't noticed the double vs single tracked vocals, but that's just me. Perhaps the UK releases were single-tracked vocals?

I'm going to look for that one on some of those imports I have.]]> Wed, 27 Sep 2023 20:52:23 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=9997&PID=63687&title=foundations-build-me-up-buttercup#63687 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=9997&PID=63685&title=foundations-build-me-up-buttercup#63685 Author: crapfromthepast

I feel like this should be somewhere on the board, but I couldn't find it.

The 45 is mono and includes double-tracked vocals throughout the song. It's readily available on lots of CDs; I like Rhino's Billboard Top Rock & Roll Hits Of 1969 (both 1989 and 1993 releases).

There's a stereo version that includes single-tracked vocals throughout the song. It's also readily available on lots of CDs; I like Rhino's British Invasion Vol. 9 (1991).

The database shows the stereo version as "underdub", which I assume refers to the single-tracked vocals.

Was this stereo version released in any form in 1969? I can't tell if it was a "stereo LP version" from back then, or if it was just an artifact that appeared in the CD era.]]> Wed, 27 Sep 2023 20:22:32 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=9997&PID=63685&title=foundations-build-me-up-buttercup#63685
